Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour Use a mix of whole wheat for a nuttier flavor if desired.

  • ¼ cup Ice water Keeps the dough cold, preventing it from becoming too sticky.

  • ½ cup Brown sugar Adds a deep, caramelized flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon A warm spice that amplifies flavor.
  • ¼ teaspoon Nutmeg Brings a delightful depth of flavor.
